Graft materials are used for inducement of regeneration in bone defects. Organic and synthetic bone graft materials facilitate remodelation or healing of the bone and induce new bone formation in the area of bone resorption caused by pathological, traumatic, and physiological reasons. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of spongious allogenic bone graft and fascia temporalis membranous collagen tissue on the healing of bone defects clinically and radiologically. The study was carried out on 90 bone defects of 81 patients who underwent apicoectomy, cystectomy, and curettage of chronic infections in the maxilla and mandible. Defects were …

The cortical thickness of the mandible (CTM) and its bone mineral density may be affected by tooth extraction. There is little knowledge of how the number of teeth in the mandible affect the cortical thickness and bone mineral density of the mandible in 2 different parts. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate whether there is any relationship between the number of teeth extracted and the cortical thickness and bone mineral density of the mandible. A total of 64 cases were evaluated in this study. The patients were divided into four groups. Group 1 consisted of 24 patients who …
